Maccabee Defense SLR Non-Restricted Receiver Set [WAIT LIST]

[edge9382]

Can we find out how much the receiver sets weigh?

The finished firearm that they are demoing is about 7.5 lbs if that helps.

Read the other threads.

1.3 lbs, IIRC.

Will these only be available in black? Or will we be able to choose other colours?

I asked about colours, Maccabee says for now it's black only.

Sounds like they're leaning towards sending people to cerkote shops to get it done post-sale rather than sell them in a coloured state, at least for the near future.

myself I'm looking at a hello kitty hydrodip

I plan on cerakoting mine regardless. I'm in the middle of building my wife a pink hello kitty 1911...now I have to look into hydrodipping...thanks.

It's tempting but I wouldn't be surprised to see the RCMP change the classification at a later date and make this worthless

Price makes it a big NO, I can get a set of Aero receivers for 199$, granted these are AR and restricted but yeah: the NR tax is strong with this one...

So say I have a Remington R-15 in 204. I could just strip it and put all that in this receiver and bam I’ve got an AR for coyotes?

Yup.... exactly.

 

[Collint2005]

That’s the best idea ever.

I hid a few posts to make it easier for readers to find helpful information. constructive discussion is welcome

Slamfire Radio podcast has an interview with Maccabee about the SLR, worth a listen.

The idea is brilliant, im impressed and very glad someone actually managed to make that happen. I just cannot wrap my head around that price point, make it reasonable and I’m all in in a heartbeat.

 

[Rockstar81]

Pre-order in. Guess I'm learning to build a rifle. ��

 

[Collint2005]

Does the upper fit into any clamshell vice fixtures? Most say they don’t for a billet upper.

 

[Dr. Hunter]

Their upper is supposedly wider than a typical ar so not sure

 

[tinman304]

Since almost everyone will be installing their own barrel, it would be nice if these shipped with a basic vice block compatible with the upper.

Just buy a reaction rod. Much better than a vice block anyways. It can be used on ANY ar-15, Troy PAR, MacDef SLR, etc.... No need to worry about receiver shape.

Just looked these up
That looks like a better idea altogether

 

[Z06corvette]

Magpul BEV Block will work as well.

We're working to get some cost-effective reaction rods.
